Terror threats rising as FEMA orders $1 Billion in dehydrated food
Finance Examiner ^ | 2/24/11 | Kenneth Schortgen Jr

Posted on 02/28/2011 3:12:28 PM PST by Kartographer

Terror threats appear to be on the rise as FEMA has rushed a $1 Billion order of dehydrated food in the event of attacks on domestic targets in the US.

This is also coming on the heels of one of the largest terror drills performed by the US Navy on American soil, as Operation Solid Curtain is taking place this week.

In an article Tuesday from the Beaufort Observer, many of the largest suppliers of dehydrated foods in the country are dropping their distributors and customers to dedicate their resources to supplying a billion dollar FEMA request and purchase.

Well that's interesting. So what do they know and when did they know it?

Dear Valued Customers:
As you know we have removed #10 cans from our website temporarily. The reason for this is sales of #10 cans have continued to increase. OFD is allocating as much production capacity as possible to this market segment, but we must maintain capacity for our other market segments as well.

Currently we are able to meet demand for Mountain House pouches and most of these products are still available for purchase on our website. We do have a small number of dealers that we will continue to make and ship #10 cans to and you will need to contact them directly to place an order. For a list of dealers, please contact us at MH-Info@ofd.com

We want to clarify inaccurate information that is being said on the internet, news and radio. This situation is not due to sales to the government domestically or internationally. We do sell products to this market, but we also sell other market segments, including Ingredient and Private Brand markets. The reason for this decision is solely due to an unexpected sales spike in #10 cans sales.

We expect this situation to be necessary for several months although this isn’t a guarantee. We will update this information as soon as we know more. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your patience. We sincerely hope you will continue to be Mountain House customers in the future.

Several years ago, I was on a camping trip in Western N.C.

I noticed Wal-Mart had some Mountain House pouches on clearance. Not sure why they were clearing them out as the dates were fresh.

Both my Daughter and I thought they were pretty good. Quite a bit better than most pre-prepared meals. They were also really easy to prepare. Just put in hot water and wait a bit.

I read this, as well. But who bought up all of their stock? I don't think a billion dollars' worth of multi-serve cans were scarfed up by survivalists in Wyoming.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

Wow.....I didn’t expect the unions would cause THAT much trouble.

Do You Have Your Green Pass? Bunkers Being Built Nationwide

http://theintelhub.com/2011/02/27/do-you-have-your-green-pass/

According to a video that just surfaced on Youtube, the government and/or private entities and/or agencies could potentially be gearing up for a massive disaster of great proportions.

Add in the fact that FEMA has ordered 140 million packets of food, body bags, and blankets it seems clear that at the very least our government believes a disaster is set to happen.

Apparently a company called American Reassurance Communities is offering citizens the ability to purchase your green pass for $75,000.00 a year, retaining your very own underground condo in underground communities worldwide.

You can even bring your friends or family along for a cool $50,000.00 per person a year extra.

What type disaster could they be preparing for?

Video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41dknvOIXlc&feature=player_embedded

This is a conversation with a guy that installs bunkers nationwide. He confirms a lot of the doubts we had……I hope people are preparing because, preparation for something to come that doesn’t is still better than sitting back and not heeding the warning. One love!

I happened to be reading this while wearing my tin foil hat.

What if the purpose of this HUGE increase in stockpiling by fema is not about them getting ready for an emergency ?

What if it’s about eliminating OUR ability to prepare for an emergency ?

“$1 Billion order of dehydrated food”

Probably more to do with government largesse to union workers than preparedness for a national emergency. This administration is totally corrupt and will stop at nothing to secure political donations and buy votes.
